JENSCHKE ORCHARDS IS ONE OF 36 FARMS ACROSS NORTH AMERICA PAYING TRIBUTE TO LAINEY WILSON WITH CORN MAZE HONORING THE COUNTRY MUSIC SUPERSTAR
In celebration of her current CMA (Country Music Association) honor of Entertainer of the year, Jenschke Orchards is preparing to open a corn maze paying tribute to country music icon Lainey Wilson, one of many popping up this fall that will collectively draw up to a million visitors. The 5-acre maze is scheduled to open for its 10th season on September 19th.
Jenschke Orchards is one of 36 farms across the U.S. and Canada inviting guests to “Get Lost with Lainey” in their corn maze this year. Continuing a tradition that began in 2023 to honor some of country music’s brightest stars through a nationwide Country Music Corn Maze campaign, previous honorees included Reba McEntire in 2023 and Luke Bryan in 2024. To view this year’s locations, visit HERE.
“Growing up on a fifth-generation farm in Louisiana, my country roots run deep, and I’m honored to be a part of something that brings more people out to farms to create memories and experience a little bit of what I grew up with,” said Wilson. “I was blessed to be raised playing in the dirt, riding in the tractor, and helping my deddy grow corn. I could never have imagined I’d be carved into a corn maze one day myself!
While navigating the mazes, guests will look for clues and play an interactive game, quizzing them on how much they know about Lainey. Participants will also encounter life-sized photo opportunities, listen to some of Lainey’s favorite hits, and hear recorded audio messages along the way. Farm visitors can also enter to win a grand prize trip to see Lainey perform at The National Finals Rodeo on December 7th, 2025, in Las Vegas, Nevada. One lucky winner will receive a trip for two, including a two-night hotel stay, airfare voucher, a meet-and-greet experience with Lainey, and tickets to the show.
Additionally, one lucky winner from each farm will receive an autographed copy of Lainey’s Whirlwind Deluxe album. Officially released on August 22, the deluxe album is a celebration of the one-year anniversary of her hit record Whirlwind and includes five new songs, including her new current rising smash Somewhere Over Laredo.
“We couldn’t be more excited to honor Lainey in so many of our maze designs this year,” said Brett Herbst, founder of The MAiZE Inc. “Our mazes are all about bringing people closer together to create memories on the farm, and Lainey represents that so perfectly with her love for agriculture and being a country girl at heart.”
Along with the corn maze, guests will also enjoy barnyard type activities when they visit the farm. Jenschke Orchards will operate from September 19th to November 2nd. For more information, call (830) 997-8422 or visit fredericksburgmaze.com.
2x GRAMMY® Award-nominated, RIAA Diamond certified rap icon Fetty Wap is celebrating the milestone 10th anniversary of his self-titled breakthrough debut album with an expanded double-LP vinyl edition, available HERE via 300 Entertainment/RGF Productions. Fetty Wap (10 Year Anniversary Edition) sees the original 2x Platinum certified 17-track release joined by the three bonus tracks included on 2015’s Fetty Wap (Deluxe Edition), as well as an additional fan favorite, 2016’s Top 10 rap hit, “Jimmy Choo.”
Fetty Wap made a spectacular debut at #1 on the Billboard 200 album chart upon its September 25, 2015 release, fueled in part by the RIAA Diamond certified smash hit single, “Trap Queen.” The explosive success rocketed Fetty to worldwide stardom, earning him GRAMMY® Award nominations for both “Best Rap Song” and ”Best Rap Performance,” as well as the MTV Video Music Award for “Artist To Watch,” the iHeartRadio Music Award for ”Best New Artist,” and the Billboard Music Award for “Top New Artist.”
Fetty Wap spawned a string of massive hits including such generational anthems as the 6x Platinum “679 (Feat. Monty),” the 3x Platinum “My Way (Feat. Monty),” and the 3x Platinum “Again,” all of which established the Patterson, NJ-based rapper as the first act in the 26-year history of Billboard’s “Hot Rap Songs” chart to land his first four singles in the Top 10 simultaneously. Released in February 2016, “Jimmy Choo” – saw Fetty keep the momentum going, proving his fifth consecutive single to debut in the “Hot Rap Songs” Top 10. In early 2025, Fetty Wap made a surprise return to the Billboard 100 following the viral resurgence of “Again,” which ascended to #1 on the TikTok Billboard Top 50.
All told, Fetty Wap proved an indisputable crossover phenomenon around the world. Along with its blockbuster commercial achievement, the album racked up a wide array of accolades including an American Music Award nod for “Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Album” and high ranking placement on year-end lists in such publications as Complex, NME, SPIN, Vice, and Pitchfork, the latter of which perhaps summed it up best: “No one had the run Fetty Wap had in 2015…Fetty could retire now and he’d still have an all-time run, and an all-time hip-hop debut record to boot.”
Angel Reese and Reebok Reveal Release Date of Her First-Ever Signature Shoe, The Angel Reese 1 – Available September 18, 2025
Debuting in Three Distinct Colorways, the Angel Reese 1 is Built for the Court and Designed for Culture
Today, Reebok, the iconic sports culture brand, and Angel Reese, two-time WNBA All-Star and fashion icon, confirm the on-sale date of her first signature basketball shoe:the Angel Reese 1. A bold fusion of performance innovation and expressive design, the Angel Reese 1 is built to match Reese’s dynamic on-court dominance and culture-driving presence off it. Angel Reese 1 will be available globally for sale on September 18th, 2025.
“This isn’t just a shoe, it’s my style, my story, and my stamp on the game,” said Angel Reese. “I wanted to design a basketball shoe that elevates performance, innovation, style, and creative expression, all at once. Reebok and I built something that’s true to who I am, and I hope it pushes others to stand in their power too. At the end of the day, it’s built for basketball – made to move and perform at the highest level.”
Engineered to support Reese’s relentless energy on the court and built to inspire and impress, the Angel Reese 1 delivers undeniable style with elite-level performance. Featuring her signature Angel Reese logo on the tongue, Reebok’s patented Energy Return System technology (ERS™) underfoot, and a Molded TPU Upper – inspired by Reese’s elegance and strength – the shoe provides stability and durability for the physical demands of postplay movements.
Designed in full collaboration with Reese, the Angel Reese 1 redefines the signature shoe narrative with innovative design at the forefront that blends Reebok hoops heritage with her style influence. Angel Reese 1 takes design inspiration from Reebok’s Mobius line, evolving the Exoskeleton Upper into the shape and angelic finish of a ‘wing’, with color palettes and materials that reflect Reese’s legacy. Angel Reese 1 is as bold and expressive as the athlete herself, with a strong style of identity that moves easily from the court to the street.
The first drop will include three distinct colorways reminiscent of Reese’s multi-faceted personality including: ‘Diamond Dust’, ‘Mebounds’, and ‘Receipts Ready’.
Key Angel Reese 1 performance tech features include:
Exoskeleton Upper: Lightweight, molded upper design highlighting Reese’s strength and style both on and off the court, providing stability and durability. Plus, Upper Cut Outs with ventilated mesh panels for breathability.
ERS™: a multi-component technology system built around a lightweight EVA midsole that delivers stability and flexibility. Strategically placed pods of nitrogeninfused SuperFloat™ foam in the heel and forefoot absorb impact and provide excellent energy return for all-game comfort and bounce.
TPU Stability Cup: Located in the heel ensures the structure needed for players, like Reese, who thrive on physicality and power.
High-Abrasion Rubber Outsole: featuring a multi-directional outsole tread to deliver grade-A traction and grip.

“The Angel Reese 1 marks the next chapter for Reebok Basketball, where performance meets personal style, and bold design leads the way,” said Todd Krinsky, CEO and President at Reebok. “This shoe captures Angel’s unique mix of elegance and strength, with sculpted details, sharp lines, and a signature logo that reflects her presence on and off the court. Every element – from the molded overlays to the heritage-inspired traction – was made to celebrate Angel and how she is redefining what it means to be an athlete,” he concluded.
The all-new Angel Reese 1 Basketball Shoes ($120 USD MRSP) will launch for sale globally on September 18th on Reebok.com and select retailers worldwide, including Dick’s Sporting Goods. Product availability and launch timing to vary per market.

Angel Reese, NCAA Champion and two-time WNBA All-Star, is one of basketball’s brightest superstars already making a significant impact both on and off the court. While her on-court stats are impressive, including setting the WNBA record for the most consecutive double-double games as a rookie and becoming the fastest player to reach 600 points and 600 rebounds in her sophomore season, her off-court endeavors have transcended the sport. After gracing the cover of Vogue earlier this year, receiving honors like being named one of Harper’s Bazaar’s Icons, BET’s Sportswoman of the Year, and securing long-term partnerships with brands like Reebok, Reese’s, Beats, and more, Reese has become a cultural force growing the game and bridging the intersection between women’s sports and the larger cultural zeitgeist. Beyond her achievements in business and on the court, Reese is a fierce advocate for gender equality in sports, challenging the double standards women face. In 2023, she founded Angel C. Reese Foundation is dedicated to empowering girls and women through sports, education, financial literacy, and more.

WATCH/ SHARE THE MUSIC VIDEO FOR RITA ORA’S “ALL NATURAL” HERE
Rita Ora unveils her brand-new single “All Natural”– a sultry, electro-pop gem produced by GRAMMY-winning auteur Joel Little (Gracie Abrams, Lorde, Sam Smith, Taylor Swift).
“All Natural” is a smouldering, seductive cut that explores transformation and self-discovery. The track sees Rita stripping back to embrace her femininity in its most unguarded form, her vocals weaving through glassy synths and shadowy beats before crystallising into a confident reflection of strength and sensuality.
Rita says: “‘All Natural’ is one of the most personal songs I’ve ever made. For me, it’s about learning to love every side of yourself — the strong and the fragile, the light and the shadows. Working with Joel was such a gift; he has this rare ability to take something deeply intimate and turn it into music that everyone can feel as their own. This song is really about growth, healing, and self-discovery. My hope is that when people hear it, they connect with their own journey and feel seen in it.”
The accompanying music video, directed by Academy Award winning filmmaker Taika Waititi, arrives the same day. Shot in a cavernous, dimly lit studio, the visuals see Rita dancing beneath vast overhead lights, gliding through rippling water, and moving between mirrored reflections. The result is a striking exploration of identity and duality – celebrating transformation, empowerment, and the beauty of being unapologetically yourself.
Rita Ora’s multi-platinum music career has won her commercial and critical acclaim, with 13 UK Top 10 singles (four at Number One), over ten billion streams, and a BRIT Billion Award to her name. Her last album You & I (2023) debuted at #6 on the UK Official Albums Chart, topped the Independent Albums Chart, and was praised by Rolling Stone as “a collection of stunning love songs.”. With “All Natural”, Rita opens a new chapter – one that feels sharper, stronger, and more truer to herself than ever before.
RITA ORA’S “ALL NATURAL” IS AVAILABLE ACROSS ALL PLATFORMS NOW

G-STAR launches Anatomic Denim, a bold new move that merges design innovation, visual storytelling, and art into one cohesive statement. Conceived around the anatomy and movement of the human body, principles central to the denim brand since the introduction of the G-STAR Elwood in 1996. The project spans three pillars: a new denim collection, a global campaign by Jordan Hemingway, and an art installation in the form of a monumental Anatomic Denim Gorilla by Darwin, Sinke & van Tongeren.
The Campaign: Movement in Its Purest Form
At the heart of Anatomic Denim is a cinematic and photographic campaign by cult director and photographer Jordan Hemingway, renowned for his visceral style and collaborations with Gucci, Prada, and Maison Margiela. The imagery features athletes from gymnastics, pole dancing, cycling, and calisthenics, but with all their usual apparatus removed. No rings, no pole, no bike. What remains is the human body in motion, clad in denim engineered to move with it.
“From the very first call, I knew this one would be special”, says Hemingway. “G-STAR is a brand with real heritage, but what makes them exciting is their appetite for reinvention and boundary-pushing. This project was exhilarating in every sense, full of creative and technical challenges that demanded invention. Working closely with their team to solve them wasn’t just rewarding—it was a joy.”
The Product: Anatomic Denim
Designed to follow and enhance the body’s natural form, the new Anatomic Denim range is the next evolution of G-STAR’s pioneering approach to fit and construction.
• The Contor – A futuristic take on the Arc, with architectural lines and a sculpted fit. • The Kitoh – Engineered seams trace musculature, emphasizing shape and motion. • The G-STAR Elwood – The original icon, reimagined for 2025 with refined anatomical tailoring.
“Anatomic Denim is the next step in G-STAR’s denim evolution, designing not just for the body, but with it in mind,” says Gwenda van Vliet, Chief Brand Officer at G-STAR. “Merging our 3D legacy with art, science, and craftsmanship, we bring denim to life in a raw, expressive, unmistakably G-STAR way.”
The Art: The Denim Gorilla
Completing the project is The Denim Gorilla, a 3.5-meter sculpture created with Darwin, Sinke & van Tongeren, celebrated for their mastery of fine taxidermy. Entirely crafted from denim, the piece explores anatomy and structure on a monumental scale. It is now on display at the Art Zoo Museum in Amsterdam and has taken center stage during Amsterdam Fashion Week and CIFF Copenhagen.
The Anatomic Denim collection is available from September 23, 2025, with prices ranging from $170 to $370 [£120 to £300 and €119.95 to €300] at selected retailers and on www.g-star.com.
